Mother Nature in all her glory

We visited the Gorge recently with my Dad ( he had flown in to watch Mackenzie play Representative soccer in Hobart - they won both games :)) and I can assure you there was a big pool there..... somewhere out there in the middle.

We live with a view to the Trevallyn Dam and we love it when the Dam flows. Over the last week though it is the highest it has been since we have been here.

We took these photo's a few days after Dad went home - pity he missed the fantastic display. One gentleman also taking in the sights said that when he was a boy he had seen the level rise to the roof of the small block shed just to the right of the playground.

He also told us scary stories of being a typical boy who used to swim and canoe in the flood - amazing what we used to get up to.

About Me

After doing the 9 day tour of Tasmania in July 2006, Michael and I and our 2 children, Madison and Mackenzie, packed our bags and moved to beautiful Launceston in early 2007.
We are all settled in and absolutely love it here.
One thing lead to another and we started selling our surplus furniture and bric-a-brac at the Inveresk markets - the idea was to sell it all and finish but the bug bit us really badly and we were there for nearly 2 years!
Now we have taken the next step and opened Recycled Relix, we buy and sell Antiques, Collectables and Items of Interest at 167A York St, Launceston. Its on the corner of Bathurst St and opposite Officeworks. You can park in Bathurst St or York St next to the shop. We are open 6 days Monday - Friday 10am till 4pm and Saturday 11am till 4pm. Ph (03) 6333 88 66.
Pop in and say hello!
